50 Reasons To Have Sex


Since I watched “The Naked Man” episode of the popular comedy show “How I Met Your Mother”, I’ve been trying to recreate the list that the show’s cast made about the 50 reasons to have sex. On the show, they only said a few so I wasn’t able to make the list just by watching. And just as I was about to give up, guess what I found?... The list!! The picture of the list may be hard to read from so I’ve taken the liberty to list it out clearly. Have fun... My personal favourite is #2, and of course #50 as well.


1. Because you can’t get to sleep

2. Make-sex

3. Break-up sex

4. Your friend told you about a new position

5. Revenge

6. Rebound

7. Paratrooping/Bangin' for roof

8. Nothing good on TV

9. Because you're in a hotel

10. Curiosity

11. It’s raining

12. It’s halftime

13. Diet/exercise

14. Celebrate recent weight loss

15. You finally get the chance to show you childhood bed some action

16. Prom night

17. You’re already at their place and don’t want to have to move your car

18. Show off new lingerie

19. Celebrate major victory by favourite team and/or political candidate

20. Your chance to do it in a specific location (ex: airplane, Burger King bathroom)

21. To prove we're not in a rut

22. Stress relief

23. Just shaved legs

24. Forgot to buy a birthday present

25. "Let’s get it on" by Marvin Gaye is playing on the radio

26. Celebrating the joy of life after a near-death experience

27. Your one chance w/a celebrity

28. Time an egg

29. To avoid cleaning, studying or doing work of any kind

30. She wants to

31. It’s cold outside

32. Cheer someone up (pity)

33. Keeping up with the neighbours

34. Your roommate is out of town and you can do it on the couch

35. Some very protected sex to celebrate the fact that I'm not/we're not/you’re not pregnant

36. Practice

37. They have air-conditioning and you don’t

38. Because he/she is from one of the countries you haven’t had sex with a person from yet

39. "Damn, your calves look good in those cargo shorts" sex

40. Called/texted the wrong person but she was into it anyway

41. Because she looks like your superhot cousin and this is the closest it'll ever get to being okay

42. Breaking in a new apartment

43. Because he said he loves you and you’re not ready to say it back yet

44. Wingman diving on the friend grenade

45. Your condoms are about to expire

46. It’s getting a little hard

47. Miscommunication (cheetos sex)

48. To reinforce good behaviour (such as shaving & dental hygiene)

49. To change the subject

50. LOVE


Does anyone have any other reasons they know of to have sex? If so, please do tell...

Anyways, for those of you who don’t know about the show, or who have not yet got around to start watching it, here’s a little summary of what it is about. How I Met Your Mother is a comedy about Ted (Josh Radnor) and how he fell in love. It all starts when Ted's best friend, Marshall (Jason Segel), drops the bombshell that he's going to propose to his long-time girlfriend, Lily (Alyson Hannigan), a kindergarten teacher. At that moment, Ted realizes that he had better get a move on if he too hopes to find true love. Helping him in his quest is Barney (Neil Patrick Harris), a friend with endless, sometimes outrageous opinions, a penchant for suits and a foolproof way to meet women. When Ted meets Robin (Cobie Smulders), he's sure it's love at first sight, but destiny may have something else in store. The series is narrated through flashbacks from the future. It’s worth watching.

ROSE

By: Sultan



I heard the silence, of the wind that blows

And I saw the hopping, of rabbits into burrows

I shouted out hello, but heard only echoes

Not a soul in sight, in that beauty of meadows


In the distance I heard, the faint sounds of hellos

Coming from afar, near a flock of cheerful sparrows

I raced to the sound, to get a sight from up-close

A beauty I found, which from the silence arose


To my life this beauty, shines a brightness that glows

Bringing joy and happiness, keeping me always on my toes

Yet the thorns so sharp, still pierce me deep like arrows

But I gladly hold on tight, till forever this beautiful rose

THESE LONELY DAYS...

By: Sultan













I miss the nights that we spent looking above

Hours on end gazing at the stars my love


For the time with you I would again stargaze

I’m counting down these lonely days...


I miss the times we spend holding each other’s hands

Till closing time in coffee shops and newsstands


For when we would again hold hands in cafés

I’m counting down these lonely days...


I miss being warm with you wrapped in blankets

Sharing with you treats of ice creams and chocolates


For when we would again split treats and sundaes

I’m counting down these lonely days...


I miss being lazy with you on a Friday or a Saturday

Doing nothing whatsoever letting the hours pass away


For when we would again spend weekends in a laze

I’m counting down these lonely days...


I miss each and every single moment I spent with you

And I cherish all those moments old and new


All those days with you will never be a haze

Still, I’m counting down these lonely days...
